I had debilitating migraines when I was a few months pregnant with my first born eight years ago. Desperate for relief from daily symptoms—I had suffered years from migraines, fatigue, stomach aches, and more—my doctor assured me I was, “fine,” even though my body said otherwise.
I didn’t want to suffer anymore, especially with a baby on-the-way. I did extensive research on my symptoms. I eliminated all the toxins I could: I made my own skincare products, bought all-organic food, ate more vegetables, exercised, etc. My body was still not okay.
I felt hopeless. After researching and consulting a nutritionist, I discovered my symptoms were linked to gluten and dairy intolerance. Going gluten-free and dairy-free resolved my symptoms in days. I regained my energy, no more headaches or hypothyroidism. I felt like a new person.
It has been a journey to rediscover my love for baking and cooking. Preparing gluten-free and dairy-free food has involved years of trial and error to recreate the decadent desserts I once loved. I look forward to sharing my favorite recipes, born from failures and followed by delicious successes. My goal is to make this journey easier for you so you can also enjoy great food.
